The Bird Lovers Suite
$179

When you stay at our Illinois bed and breakfast, you will be inspired by the beautiful natural surroundings.

Our inn offers wonderfully unique Peoria lodging amidst 120 lush acres with a 7-acre private lake, both of which attract many types of wildlife. Some of the local “visitors” you may expect to see include deer, fox, wild turkey, and numerous other birds.

It was a love for these birds and bird watching in Illinois that served as the inspiration for the Bird Lovers Suite. This suite features a bird feeder next to your private porch that can be viewed from inside or outside. The room also features mission-style, custom-built queen bed and tables, romantic lighting, 2-sided fireplace, 2-person whirlpool, satellite TV, DVD, CD player, microwave, refrigerator, reclining loveseat, very soft bathrobes, full private bath, porch, and entrance. Your stay in the Bird Lovers Suite also includes complimentary, homemade desserts, one per person and free use of a canoe and grounds.

For an extra special touch, consider adding one of our packages to your stay. Whether you are on a romantic getaway, fishing vacation, or just a fun time away with friends, we have the perfect add-on for you. As always, our on-site dinner options will delight you with its culinary creations. It provides a relaxed atmosphere where you can recount the events of the day and plan for the adventure that tomorrow may hold, whether that includes sightseeing, bird watching, fishing, or exploring the surrounding areas. You will be glad you chose Mission Oak Inn as your home away from home for your vacation or getaway.

GUEST COMMENTS

“My working days took me to the finest hotels in Texas, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Canada, Chicago, and many more but none of them showed the hospitality that you did. The meals were beyond description both in fine taste and presentation. You both are so warm and feeling of others. You are informative and helpful. You run this B&B in a family way, not in a business way, and it sure makes a difference.” Janet & Louie

“What a wonderfully beautiful place to spend the weekend! It is like paradise. The room was cozy, the food was awesome and the hospitality outstanding. It was very relaxing, just what we needed. We went fishing, took a walk around the lake and looked at the stars at midnight. It was spectacular! We loved watching the birds. It made us smile every time a hummingbird flew by. Best of all, we felt like we knew Denny and Jan for years. They made us feel so welcome and special.” Dave & Michele

“Thank you for the most wonderful stay. You can tell you took such care in planning this incredible B&B. Your love is shown through the detail in everything about this beautiful home. We were blessed with your conversations. You are truly wonderful, caring people. Denny is a wonderful chef.” Ray & Fay
